About Us

Behind the scenes Juana Cruz (administrator and co-owner) and Sujeidi Henriquez (Provider and co-owner) are two women with a common goal, to help families transition from raising their child(ren) in the home, to attending their very first preschool. Juana Cruz believed her family would benefit from a preschool environment, where her youngest of five would excel in academics at an early age. Sujeidi Henriquez transitioned from working abroad to working in New York and found it to be so different yet very much the same. She learned that the large percentage of educators , providers, and even parents, want the same for their little ones. They want their child(ren) to grow in a safe and secure environment, while preparing them for the future. Together, Juana and Sujeidi made the life changing decision to start a home daycare business.

Sujeidi Henriquez

Provider / Director

Meet the provider 

Hello my name is Sujeidi Henriquez, co-owner and provider at Sue’s Prep Group Family Daycare in New Rochelle, NY.  I have been educating children for over five years. I am a graduate of the State University of New York at Cobleskill, where I obtained an Associate of Applied Science in Child and Family Services and acquired a Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education. My passion for Early Childhood Education has taken me abroad to Countries such as Malawi, Africa and Quito, Ecuador.  During my experience abroad, I learned from some of the kindest teachers, providers and community members. Traveling to these places introduced me to new skills and a deeper passion for working with children and families, from a range of cultures and backgrounds.

Administrator

Meet the Administrator

Hello my name is  Juana Cruz, co-owner and administrator at Sue’s Prep Group Family Daycare in New Rochelle, NY. I am also a Registered Elementary School Nurse in the district of New Rochelle. I graduated from Helene Fuld School of Nursing in 2014. Prior to my career in the healthcare industry, I have always wanted to own a daycare. After having my youngest of five children, I decided that my daughter would benefit from all the wonderful opportunities a daycare environment would provide her.

Health & Safety

We are closely following guidance from the CDC, as well as state and health authorities, as we take extreme care to maintain our safe, healthy daycare environment. We will continue to evaluate and adjust such policies as needed.

 

Protective Masks and Social Distancing 

  • All staff members must wear a mask when working in the daycare and playground.

  • Face coverings are required for any adult entering the daycare. 

  • Children must wear masks. Children may only be excused from wearing a mask with a written and signed doctor's note. 

  • Children will be allowed to have mask breaks during the day. 

  • Children will not wear a face covering mask during naptime, as it may interfere with breathing and observations. 

  • All staff, children and families must maintain social distancing guidelines according to the Department of Health.

  • Refer to our COVID-19 Plan in the parent handbook for more details on how we are staying safe.
